just need some advice on what to do with my current situation. I know its long but I need your sincere Advice:
To start with, my husband and I are just married for about a year and a half and we are currently living in his parents' basement. Well it didn't really occure to me that this was going to be a problem (well,masking it with saving money instead of renting an apartment). I don't really have anything to say about his parents, they are really nice people. But im beginning to suspect that my husband is a mama's boy, this is making my mind explode because I really don't want to be attached with a guy who's a mama's boy and I think that I have made this huge and stupid mistake of marrying one. He asks his mother for approval whenever he is doing something, he calls her most of the time whenever we are out traveling somewhere (to give her updates on how our day went and what our plans are for the next day), he can't say no to his mother.
whenever we are planning to go out like we recently planned to go for a romantic dinner for 2 and guess what he invited his mom and his sister to go with us(this is not the only time this happened, there were lots of it)it's totally fine if they go with us but not all the time, I just want to shout at him and say "Can we just have a "we" time where it's just the two of us?" it's as if he can't live without his mother. Another one, we were shopping at one day for a project, we were looking at this toilet seat he pointed at a certain toilet seat and said "That toilet seat is a good one, it's the same as the one at my parent's house and if we get that for our house my mom would certainly approve of it".
Few nights ago e got me angry so I refused to go up for dinner . I told him that I don't feel like eating yet, so they can just eat dinner without me. He went up for dinner and his sister came down and tried making me go upstairs to eat dinner, so I did (in case they think that I was being disrespectful or something like that), so they were talking about cooking chicken, then someone mentioned "What? You can't go wrong with cooking chicken! It's easy" then my husband replied, "Yes you can, my wife did that, she cooked this chicken and it was awful". Imagine hearing that when you are already depressed and mopey, I wanted to just cry in front of everyone and shout that "This is enough! I want to go home and leave this place and never come back!" I know I am not good with cooking but hearing my husband say that in front of other people, it just made me scared,scared that I cannot trust him anymore, the only person I thought who would stand up for me when everything would go wrong just shattered my whole world into pieces and I couldn't pick it up. I told him about the chicken and he said sorry to me, but I don't know I am still scared, maybe I have not forgiven him, it just makes me scared, what happens when I make another mistake like that, will other people know of them too? I just can't trust him anymore. I guess I was just expecting him to be that someone I can depend on when the world is against me.
Please help me with this concern, I love my husband and I don't want these concerns to hinder in our relationship.
Thank you!
My dear, in life for every decision you take there is a price. Your husband did not turn mummy' boy over night you were just blinded by the good times you were having and anticipating he will pop the question. But now that your his wife you are forced to face the reality in front of you. I personally am highly emotional,so l avoid the act of trusting even you at times you do certains things that given a second option you wldnt do. You need to accept the situation study your husband understand him from an objective point of view then you will devise means of sharing his heart with his mum, from there the loyalty just might be fully be urs. Give him what he wants dont allow him mention his mum first take the act of mum' opinion from him before long you will begin to irritate him and gradually the story will change for the better, as you do this make sure his mum is your best friend so that when the attention shifts u wont be a suspect
